Well, one instance comes to mind... what if the U-joint were to snap causing the drive shaft to drop and dig into the asphalt while the vehicle was still traveling at a pretty good clip. That could very well result in a break down followed by a flip over...:shrug:

Maybe he accidentally shifted into 4L, everything locked up and the front wheel collapsed while making pretty good time around the corner.
